Grant's First Easter Egg Hunt

While this is Grant's second Easter celebration (here is the link to his first), this was his first Easter Egg hunt! Grant is a master at organization so any task involving things which belong in a bucket, Grant will enjoy. He had a great time searching and running back to the bucket with his hands full. It was a great surprise to see Grant helping the other kids add eggs to their basket too.

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Grant experienced his first parade today. It was the St. Patrick's Day Parade in downtown Phoenix. There were plenty of big trucks, horses, and his favorite...fire engines.

New Playground

We found a new playground for Grant which has slides, swings, and fun sandbox tractors. His favorite activity though was pulling weeds. Check it out-

Happy Valentine's Day from Grant

We made fun Valentine's Day cards for Grant's grandparents and decided to take a few extra for friends and family.

We Love Long Weekends

Extra time on the weekend means extra time with Grant. While it was cold outside, Grant had fun with Dad's shoes and once it warmed up a bit Dad and Grant went hiking on a new trail.

Always a joker...

Another evening of entertainment thanks to Grant's unlimited energy and funny antics. 

Christmas Captured

This year was Grant's second Christmas. It was the first Christmas he was able to open his own presents and boy did he enjoy it!

Best wishes to Grandma Ruth who unfortunately broke her leg right before the holidays and could not make it this year. We opened presents by phone so she could join in the fun.

Silly Hat

Now that the temperatures have dropped, Grant has been trying out some of his hats. This one is especially silly and that's why Mommy loves it. 

 

Santa at Gate6

Santa came to Mommy's office, Gate6, and Grant got a second try.  He was a little freaked out by the other kids who were scared and scream-crying, but he quickly mellowed and we got some decent pics as long as Mommy was there with him.  How great looking is this Santa with the curly mustache?!

First Picture with Santa

Grant was not a fan of being with Santa by himself, so Mommy and Daddy joined in.  We were thankful for such a cute and patient Santa Claus.

Grandma Ruth Comes to Visit

We were so excited with Grant's Halloween pictures that this picture of when Grandma Ruth visited a few weeks ago was not even up yet! This year will be celebrating the holidays in Arizona so expect more family pictures soon. 

Happy Halloween!

For Halloween this year Grant rocked out with his mo-hawk, ripped shirt, and skull tattoos. Check out Mom and Dad's costume as well. 

 

Fun at the Farm

Grant got to experience the fun an excitement of a local farm. We was able to see some of his favorite animals up close and pick out his holiday pumpkin. It was great fun for the family. 

Always a Character

Grant is always finding new ways to make us laugh. Here he is walking around with pants on his head.

Thanks Buddy!

Hallelujah Pork!

Family fun around the dinner table!

He Loves to Color

Grant got to color for the first time and he loved it!  (He's coloring on old Wells Fargo print outs like I used to color on old BLM print outs.)  He did try to taste test the crayons a couple times, but making marks and dots on the paper was definitely the highlight.

Playing with sticky tape is a current fave.  He wins by finally getting it to stick to the table and not his hands.  Love those dimples!!

Danger Boo

Grant has had so much fun with ripping out pages of catalogs and playing in them like they're leaves.  They're tricky though, 'cause they're slippery.  (I guess this is a sign that he's a true Phoenician - playing in paper since we don't have fall, or leaves.)

And here's a fun bonus video of Grant learning how to wink. (Yep, the drool mark on his onesie is because he's cutting 4 teeth at once.)

PeekaBoo!

Grant just loves playing peekaboo around corners and doors...
